Cocoa Mug by Frosted Window in Malindi

Warm steam rises gently from a ceramic mug filled with dark cocoa, resting on a woven mat atop a wooden window seat. Outside the frosted glass, the wet season rain blurs the green foliage of Malindi's coastal vegetation into soft vertical streaks. North window light spills across the room, illuminating the rough texture of the mug's handle and the condensation beading on the glass. The background remains sharp, revealing the weathered white frame of the window and the distant grey sky, while the foreground floor catches muted, diffuse reflections of the scene. One droplet of water slides slowly down the pane, tracing a path through the frosted surface.
